CData Python Connector for Couchbase

Build 24.0.9060

ManageIndices

Creates/Drops an index in a target bucket in Couchbase.

Building Indices

An anonymous primary index can be created with these parameters:

EXECUTE ManageIndices
  @BucketName = 'Players'
  @Action = 'CREATE'
  @IsPrimary = 'true'
  @IndexType = 'VIEW'

This is the same as executing this N1QL:

CREATE PRIMARY INDEX ON `Players` USING VIEW

A named primary index can be created by specifying an @Name, in addition to the parameters listed above:

EXECUTE ManageIndices
  @BucketName = 'Players'
  @Action = 'CREATE'
  @IsPrimary = 'true'
  @Name = 'Players_primary'
  @IndexType = 'VIEW'

A secondary index can be created by setting @IsPrimary to false and providing at least one expression.

EXECUTE ManageIndices
  @BucketName = 'Players',
  @Action = 'CREATE',
  @IsPrimary = 'false',
  @Name = 'Players_playtime_score',
  @Expressions = '["score", "playtime"]'

This is the same as running the following N1QL:

CREATE INDEX `Players_playtime_score` ON `Players`(score, playtime) USING GSI;

Multiple nodes and filters can also be provied to generate more complex indices. They must be provided as JSON lists:

EXECUTE ManageIndices
  @BucketName = 'Players',
  @Name = 'TopPlayers',
  @Expressions = '["score", "playtime"]',
  @Filter = '["topscore > 1000", "playtime > 600"]',
  @Nodes = '["127.0.0.1:8091", "192.168.0.100:8091"]'

This is the same as running the following N1QL:

CREATE INDEX `TopPlayers` ON `Players`(score, playtime) WHERE topscore > 1000 AND playtime > 600 USING GSI WITH { "nodes": ["127.0.0.1:8091", "192.168.0.100:8091"]};
